The Delhi High Court Today (April 8th) rebuked a former AAP MLA-Sandeep Kumar who approached the court seeking instructions to oust Arvind Kejriwal from his position as CM of Delhi. This move came subsequent to Kejriwal’s arrest by the ED in connection to the money laundering case linked to the Delhi excise policy scam.
The ED asserted to the Delhi High Court Today (April 3rd) that Arvind Kejriwal, cannot use the approaching Lok Sabha elections or his CM status as grounds for special treatment in his money laundering case. The ED counsel analogized by questioning, “Consider a scenario where a terrorist, also a politician, detonates an army vehicle and claims immunity to contest elections. What logic is this?”
The Supreme Court issued an order Today (April 3rd) to remove advocate Bansuri Swaraj’s name from its bail grant to AAP leader Sanjay Singh.

A Delhi court Today (April 3rd) instructed AAP leader Sanjay Singh to refrain from tampering with evidence or influencing witnesses in the “scam” case related to Excise.
